Summary - 46 COTSWOLD AVENUE CHESTER LE STREET DH2 3BP
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable three-bed with parking and renovation upside near local schools and transport.
Three bedrooms, one bathroom, approx 88sqm / 947 sqft
This three-bedroom mid-century terraced house on Cotswold Avenue offers straightforward, affordable home ownership in Garden Farm. At approximately 88 sqm (around 947 sqft), the layout includes a living room, kitchen/diner with rear access, three bedrooms and a single bathroom — sensible accommodation for a first home or rental unit.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, off-street parking to the rear, a useful outhouse for storage and double glazing. The property has an EPC rating of C and mains gas central heating via a boiler and radiators, helping running costs. Council Tax is in a very cheap band (A).
The house requires renovation and cosmetic updating throughout, which presents scope to increase value but means immediate works will be needed. The plot is small and the building dates from the 1950s–1960s, so buyers should allow for typical mid-century maintenance and possible element replacements. The local area is classified as deprived with above-average crime rates; buyers should factor neighbourhood considerations into their plans.
Close to local shops, bus routes and several well-rated primary schools, the home is well placed for commuting and family life. For first-time buyers or investors seeking a manageable project with parking and good transport links, this property offers potential once modernisation and refurbishment are completed.
